The Rise of the Writers of the Republic of China

next morning.

The servants helped to pack the luggage, and the followers of the Marshal's Mansion also bid farewell to Zhou Hexuan.

"Mr. Zhou, go slowly."

"Mr. Zhou remembers to come back to play often."

"Mr. Zhou, take care!"

"..."

Zhou Hexuan belonged to that kind of exquisite character, whether it was concubine, cronies, or ordinary servants and guards, everyone had a very good impression of him. The only exception was Mr. Shen, who always felt that Zhou Hexuan was going to fight for favor, and made countless small reports in front of Chu Yupu.

But what's funny is that now that Zhou Hexuan was about to leave, the one who showed the most reluctance was actually Shen Yaorong, who kept holding his hand to express his heartfelt feelings.

The maid, Xiao Lian, quickly ran back to the Fifth Aunt's room: "Miss, Mr. Zhou is leaving, don't you want to say goodbye?"

"Mr. Zhou is leaving?" Xiaoqing was quite surprised and couldn't help asking, "Where is he going?"

Xiao Lian said: "It seems that he is going to work in the Marshal's Mansion. Mr. Zhou is really going to soar this time."

Xiaoqing smiled melancholy and said: "Mr. Zhou is full of knowledge, it's better to go to the Young Marshal's Mansion, it's better to have a future than staying here."

Xiao Lian said: "Yes, Mr. Zhou is not only talented, but also handsome, just like the flamboyant talent in the drama."

"Xiao Nizi is in love?" Xiaoqing teased.

"It's the young lady who makes me happy, I read "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" over and over again with the newspaper all day," Xiaolian sneered, and then said disappointedly, "It's a pity that this is not Cui's mansion, and I can't be a matchmaker."

"That's right, this is not Cui's Mansion." Xiao Qing felt sad. Since she was in elementary school, she has been reading all kinds of dramas and poems, and her mind is full of stories about talented men and beautiful women. Unfortunately, the reality is always so cruel, and she can only marry a stupid handsome man who doesn't understand the scenery.

The master and servant were speechless for a moment.

Suddenly, Xiaoqing found out a pair of colorful ink landscapes from the drawer. It was her own painting. Although it is far inferior to the works of famous artists, it can still show some skill.

Xiaoqing stuffed the painting scroll into Xiaolian's hand, and said: "Find a chance to give this painting to Mr. Zhou."

"Miss, are you serious?" Xiao Lian was shocked. It is enough to talk about matchmaker's matchmaking, but if she really puts it into practice, she is afraid that she will be beaten to death by the commander.

Xiaoqing sighed: "I have no other intentions, I just want to leave a thought for you."

"Then... alright." Xiao Lian gritted her teeth, turned around, opened the door and ran downstairs.

The second concubine, the third concubine, and the fourth concubine were all in the living room, talking about something very lively, as if they were discussing where to go to play today.

Xiao Lian hid the scroll in her sleeve, waited for a while before finding a chance, secretly handed out the scroll and said, "Mr. Zhou, this is from Miss."

Before Zhou Hexuan could react, Xiao Lian had already run away quickly. He unfolded the painting scroll and saw that it was painted like smoked willows, a pavilion after the rain, and there seemed to be a haggard woman in the attic.

The whole painting has no title and no signature, but there is a song poem attached to the blank space: "The willows in the east wind are green. The smoke is light and the rain is clear at the beginning. Annoyed him to sleep deeply in the Xiangge, and there is a song of warbler when he is disturbed. His eyebrows are thin and his waist is dancing. Light. Put makeup into place. A spring is full of fragrance, March is like the wind, and it is connected with human feelings."

Zhou Hexuan only scanned the first sentence at the beginning, then rolled up the scroll, and quickly stuffed it into his luggage.

The Cipai of this poem is called - Telling the Heart, and the meaning expressed in it is self-evident.

Zhou Hexuan sweated wildly: I don't remember teasing my fifth wife, what the hell!

From the day the Fifth Aunt entered the house, Zhou Hexuan naturally thought of a novel, namely "Autumn Begonia", which is known as the first tragedy in the Republic of China. In the next few decades, this novel will be adapted into movies and TV series many times, and the heroine in the book is actually Chu Yupu's Fifth Aunt Tai Xiaoqing!

The real situation is as follows: Chu Yupu leads troops to go out to fight, Fifth Aunt is too impatient to be lonely to go to the theater, and falls in love with the popular young student Liu Hanchen. The relationship between the two seems to be very innocent, and the fifth aunt only needs to get a signed poster of Liu Hanchen. But because the fifth aunt went to the backstage of the theater too often, this affair was published by the gossip tabloids. When Chu Yupu learned about it, he was furious, and immediately arrested Liu Hanchen and shot him.

Even Guo Degang performed the long stand-up comedy "Shooting Liu Hanchen" in Deyun Club, which shows how widely this story has spread.

Zhou Hexuan didn't want to touch Marshal Chu's bad luck. If these bastards get angry, I'm afraid they won't even give Zhang Xueliang face.

After waiting for a while, the old butler Wang Dafu came over and said, "Mr. Zhou, the commander is downstairs."

Zhou Hexuan immediately pretended that nothing happened, and ran to the living room to meet Chu Yupu with a calm expression. Before leaving, he had to say goodbye formally.

Chu Yupu was sitting on the sofa at this time, and said to the herald with a murderous expression: "Xiao Jia, you call Yufeng and tell him not to startle the snake, but to catch them first!"

"Yes! Marshal." Jia He immediately ran to work.

Zhou Hexuan walked over and cupped his fists and said, "Marshal, I'm here to say goodbye."

Chu Yupu nodded and said: "When you get to the young commander, you must work hard and don't embarrass my old Chu."

"I would like to follow the Commander-in-Chief's instruction." Zhou Hexuan said with a smile.

Chu Yupu seemed to be going out soon, Zhang Wukui had already run to ask the driver to prepare the car, and the adjutant Chu Nanxiang stood beside him looking a little anxious.

Zhou Hexuan was going to leave after saying goodbye, but when he was turning around, he suddenly saw Chu Nanxiang's fingers keep tapping, sometimes drawing characters and symbols on his clothes.

what's going on?

Zhou Hexuan watched it several times before he finally understood what Chu Nanxiang was doing. He was sending Morse code!

Moreover, it is an American Morse code that has been eliminated by later generations. The content is roughly: arrest people tonight and transfer them quickly.

Chu Nanxiang sent the code in the direction of several concubines, Zhou Hexuan turned his head to look, and saw that the fourth concubine was also replying the code: Received.

Underground party?

Zhou Hexuan was dumbfounded, he really didn't expect that Chu Nanxiang and the fourth concubine were actually lurking underground parties.

But the timing is wrong. Our party’s underground organization is not popular now, and it didn’t blossom everywhere until after April 12th.

Chu Nanxiang seemed to sense something, turned around suddenly, and met Zhou Hexuan's eyes, each of them saw surprise in the other's eyes.

Oops!

Chu Nanxiang was a little panicked, and his face turned pale. He was obviously afraid that Zhou Hexuan would inform him.

Zhou Hexuan quickly sent a code to appease: Don't be alarmed, comrades!

Chu Nanxiang saw the content of the code clearly. Although he was no longer flustered, he was even more shocked. He didn't expect that there was a comrade beside him.

"Oh, I think that's coming, it's not convenient to go to the movies today." Fourth Aunt suddenly shouted.

The corner of Zhou Hexuan's mouth twitched, the reason...

On the way to the Marshal's Mansion in a rickshaw, Zhou Hexuan was still a little dizzy. He really wanted to know what happened to Chu Nanxiang and Fourth Aunt, why didn't they see it before, it was hidden so deep!
